In the arena, Chen Zong sheathed the Clear Heart Sword. He stood there quietly, thinking.
Just a little bit more, just a little bit more, and he would have been able to grasp that opportunity and make a big breakthrough in the Clear Sword Theory. But the pressure was still not enough, just a little bit more.
"Could it be that I have to directly challenge a Martial Saint?" Chen Zong couldn't help but think.
The strength of a Martial Saint was much stronger than that of a Titled Martial Artist. As for exactly how strong they were, Chen Zong wasn't sure. However, from the description, a Titled Martial Artist could fight against a hundred elite soldiers, while a Martial Saint could fight against a thousand.
Therefore, Chen Zong didn't have much confidence in being able to contend against a Martial Saint.
If he didn't have the confidence, then he might not be able to borrow the opponent's pressure to make a breakthrough. It was very risky.
Of course, if there was no other choice, Chen Zong would have to take this step.
"Did you really tie with Changhe?" Red Sun Blade's voice sounded with a hint of doubt.
Could it be that Changhe Sword King's strength had really surpassed his?
"That battle wasn't over. My sword was broken," Chen Zong replied with a smile.
He didn't answer directly, but the meaning behind his words was for Red Sun Blade to think about it himself.
Red Sun Blade's thoughts raced, and he immediately came to a conclusion. The sword Chen Zong had used before was just a very ordinary sword. It couldn't be compared to Changhe's sword. After many clashes, it had broken, causing the battle to end halfway. Therefore, it could be considered a tie.
In other words, the opponent's strength was actually above Changhe's.
Thinking of this, Red Sun Blade suddenly felt a lot better. It turned out that Changhe's strength wasn't above his.
Chen Zong turned around and was about to leave the arena. The eight aristocratic families, the four marquises' manors, and the general's manors also prepared to contact Chen Zong. Their purpose was naturally to recruit Chen Zong.
He was a Titled Martial Warrior who was even stronger than the Red Sun Blade. Furthermore, he was so young. It was very likely that he would become a Martial Saint in the future. This was a very high-level fighter. Once they recruited him, not only would they be able to increase their martial prowess, they would also be able to gain a lot of face.
However, outside the fighting ring, 13 figures quickly walked in. Each of them was emitting an astonishing aura. As soon as they appeared, their gazes swept across the crowd and immediately fell on Chen Zong.
"The Bright Light Guards!" Red Sun Blade's pupils suddenly shrank to the size of needles.
Why would the Radiant Guard appear here?
Moreover, they were all looking at Chen Zong.
Could it be …
A bad feeling grew in his heart.
As a Consecrator of Marquis Jing's Estate, Blazing Sun Blade had a certain status and naturally knew more things.
The Six Great Guards of the Long Xuan Nation were famous for their fierceness. Every one of them had been groomed and trained from a young age, and every one of them had at least the strength of an elite warrior. Furthermore, their willpower had also undergone extremely cruel training and sharpened, allowing them to better withstand the impact of a Titled Warrior's willpower.
From the very beginning, the Six Great Guards had created the Titled Warriors as imaginary enemies.
The martial arts techniques that they cultivated were purely for the purpose of killing enemies. No matter what, they would use all kinds of methods. Furthermore, they were good at coordinating with each other. They were also equipped with powerful crossbows that were forged using special methods and had a shooting range of 100 meters.
Within 100 meters, elite warriors would not be able to dodge at all. Within 50 meters, Titled Warriors would be under great threat.
Furthermore, the material of the armor that they wore was equally astonishing. It had a terrifying defensive power, and under normal circumstances, it would be difficult for the swords and sabers of elite warriors to break through.
Blazing Sun Blade was very clear that if he were to fall into the encirclement of the 10 Bright Light Guards, he would not be able to escape. There was a 70% chance that he would be killed.
As for the Bright Light Guards, they would not normally be mobilized. They needed to use secret medicine and secret techniques to maintain their peak condition. Every time they were mobilized, they would consume a lot of resources.
The cost of nurturing 10 Bright Light Guards surpassed that of a top-notch Titled Warrior.
It was also because of this that there were only Six Great Guards. After all, the other forces did not have the financial ability to do so.
The three people who led the 10 Bright Light Guards also caused Blazing Sun Blade's pupils to shrink.
The person in the lead was dressed in bronze armor and looked very powerful. He had two axes crossed behind his back, and his aura was vigorous and ferocious. He was the top-notch Titled Warrior who was on par with Blazing Sun Blade: the Fierce Wind General. His Fierce Wind Axe Technique was extremely terrifying.
Although the other two were not top-notch Titled Martial Warriors, they were experienced Titled Martial Warriors and had extraordinary abilities.
The three Titled Warriors and the 10 Bright Light Guards all had their gazes on Chen Zong. It was obvious that they had targeted Chen Zong. This was definitely not a good thing.
Blazing Sun Blade quickly retreated and left the arena. He had no intention of helping Chen Zong, nor did he have any intention of warning Chen Zong. After all, Chen Zong was not his relative or friend. At most, he was just an opponent to challenge. That was all.
There was no need to offend the Bright Light Guards.
Seeing Blazing Sun Blade retreat, a smile appeared on the Fierce Wind General's face.
Very tactful!
Of course, if the roles were reversed, he would do the same.
"Chen Zong, you killed Mountain Splitter. Lord Ming Hou is furious, but he is still willing to give you a chance. Surrender and follow me back to the Ming Hou Residence to await Lord Ming Hou's punishment." The Fierce Wind General looked directly at Chen Zong, his eyes filled with astonishing determination. His voice was like the roar of a fierce wind.
For a moment, the forces that wanted to recruit Chen Zong all stopped in their tracks.
So it was this person who had killed Mountain Splitter.
Mountain Splitter was one of the higher-ranking officials in the Ming Hou Residence, and he had a good relationship with the Ming Hou.
After killing Mountain Splitter, this person did not hide in the deep mountains and forests. Instead, he came to the Royal City. He really did not know the immensity of heaven and earth.
Chen Zong felt threatened. That threat came from the three Titled Martial Warriors, as well as the ten people wearing bright silver armor.
The Bright Light Guards!
Chen Zong could not help but look solemn.
He had already mentally prepared himself for entering the Royal City, but he did not expect it to come so quickly.
However, since it was already here, then so be it.
This battle was unavoidable.
In an instant, the three Titled Warriors immediately spread out and formed a triangular encirclement, surrounding Chen Zong. The 10 Bright Light Guards spread out very precisely. They seemed to be scattered around in a disorderly manner, but every foothold seemed to have been carefully calculated. They could make the fastest and most accurate response in an instant.
Regardless of whether it was attack or defense.
In an instant, Chen Zong felt as if he had been completely locked on.
It was as if there was nowhere to run. Even if he had a pair of wings on his back, he would still be unable to escape.
Chen Zong had heard of the Six David's fierce reputation before, but he had never seen it with his own eyes. Now, the Bright Light Guards were right in front of him.
Although they had not made a move yet, he could get a glimpse of how terrifying they were.
His heart sank slightly, and Chen Zong's expression turned solemn.
This was a life and death situation. From the looks of it, it was either life or death. There seemed to be no third possibility.
Since that was the case, if he wanted to live, he could only kill all of these people.
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Chen Zong immediately eliminated all distracting thoughts. His eyes also changed in an instant. They became extremely sharp, and his aura became more condensed. Vaguely, it seemed to become a sharp sword that could pierce through the sky.
Red Sun Blade sensed the change in Chen Zong's aura and was stunned. He was even more impressed.
Under such circumstances, it was indeed shocking that he could still have such an aura. However, this was all he could do. After all, if he did not surrender, he could only fight and fight to live.
If he were in Chen Zong's shoes, would he have such determination?
Red Sun Blade did not know.
Although he was suspected of being a hired thug, he could enjoy a lot of resources and live like a prince. It was inevitable that he would lose his drive.
"I hate that look in your eyes," the Wild Wind Warrior said as he stared at Chen Zong with a mocking look. "Are you planning to resist? If so, then unfortunately, I can only take your corpse back. "
"Try it!" Chen Zong's voice was a little low, but it contained an indescribable sharpness and determination.
Try it!
Would he take his corpse back, or would he be cut down by his sword?
"Take him," the Fierce Wind Warrior said with a cold smile. He then signaled to the other two titled warriors.
These two titled warriors were about the same strength as Mountain-splitter, but when they joined forces, they were more powerful than Mountain-splitter.
The two of them laughed coldly. Soon after, they closed in on Chen Zong from the left and right respectively. Their auras were shocking, and their terrifying mental will attacked Chen Zong. One made Chen Zong feel like a giant wave was crashing against him, while the other made Chen Zong feel like a mountain rock was rolling down.
The ten Bright Light Guards raised their left arms and aimed their crossbows at Chen Zong. The terrifying crossbow arrows reflected an astonishing cold light under the sunlight. They were so sharp that it was difficult to look at them directly.
Compared to the two approaching Titled Warriors, the crossbows of the ten Radiant Guards posed a greater threat to Chen Zong, and the pressure was even greater.
The Fierce Wind Warrior had no intention of making a move, at least for now. He also believed that there was no need for him to make a move.
Chen Zong was highly focused. He was paying attention to the approaching two titled warriors, the ten Bright Light Guards, and the Fierce Wind Warrior. Chen Zong was also paying attention to them from the corner of his eye.
His body did not move, but he gathered all the strength in his body. He did not care even if he was overloaded.
This battle was not a challenge, but a battle of life and death. He could not care less.
Chen Zong calculated silently. His mind was spinning rapidly, almost overloaded. He felt as if his brain was about to burn up.
He had to kill the two titled warriors first. At the same time, he had to avoid the crossbow arrows of the Bright Light Guards. He had to take the opportunity to escape and leave the arena as quickly as possible.
If there was a chance, Chen Zong would not want them to fight to the death here. It would be very disadvantageous to him.
Even if he wanted to fight to the death, he had to choose a place that was more advantageous to him.
His thoughts were as fast as lightning. In a flash, the two titled warriors were closing in on him with terrifying power.
Red Sun Blade narrowed his eyes and stared at Chen Zong to see how he would react.
In that instant, a fragmented golden sword light shot out. It was so bright and dazzling that it seemed as if it had cut through the night sky. It was unparalleled.
This sword light streaked across the sky, across everyone's eyes, and across everyone's hearts, leaving behind an imprint that could not be erased for eternity.
It was too fast!
Even the Bright Light Guards, who had undergone extremely strict training, could not react in time to such a speed.
When they realized that something was wrong, they immediately shot out their crossbows. Ten specially made sharp crossbow arrows, each the length of two fingers, pierced through the sky in an instant. As they spun violently, their speed kept increasing. In less than a breath's time, they had crossed dozens of meters and shot toward Chen Zong.
